A property based in the Auckland city suburb of Mt Eden has sold for $1.45 million above capital value (CV).

It comes as a shortage of listings and record-low interest rates have increased buyer demand. The 5-bedroom property is located in Hona Ave and has a current CV of $2.825 million.

Real estate agency Ray White confirmed on Thursday that it sold for $4.280 million – a whopping 51 percent above the CV.

“Going in, we knew we had people around circa $4 million, obviously with a CV of $2.8 million that’s quite a big difference,” Ray White real estate agent Mike Robson said.
